Pro Tip: Pick the Right Exit for Your Terminal
DTW has two terminals served by different exits:
- McNamara Terminal (Delta, SkyTeam partners): Exit I-275 at Eureka Road (Exit 15)
- Evans/North Terminal (all other airlines): Exit I-94 at Merriman Road (Exit 198) Using the wrong exit adds 10+ minutes of airport-area surface street driving. Use TrafficVision cameras on I-94 and I-275 to verify the correct approach.
